A week into conference play and we now have three teams that are still safe from defeat. Kansas, North Carolina and Memphis are all no.1 seeds as of right now and look to be heading straight for the final four, but will they still be undefeated??. Kansas is probably the most talented, North Carolina is the most proven and Memphis has the most to prove.
Memphis has the easiest road by playing in Conference USA and they're only mid season test will come versus Tennessee on Feb. 23rd. They do have potential trap games at Houston and UAB but they should fly through those pretty easily.
If I had to award a "Best team in the Regular season" award Kansas would get it every year, but we dont have awards like that, thank god. Kansas has everything in front of them right now, a top team, good quality wins and most importantly good coaching. The biggest thing for them is putting it together in march, we all know how they great they have done in March. The Tar Heels showed on saturday why their No. 1 ranking is safe and secure. While they had a 25-0 run versus NCST, they just played solid defense and put together great transition offense (2 keys to winning a national title). The only thing stopping them from going undefeated, a 4 letter word....DUKE.
